Wessling (Germany), 26 August 2014 –hyperMILL® 2014, the CAM solution from OPEN MIND Technologies AG, is fully compatible with Autodesk Inventor 2015 as has been certified by Autodesk Inc. Realising the seamless interaction between the two products is an integral part of the hyperMILL® product development process.

“It’s important for our users to be able to work quickly and efficiently through excellent integration with our products. OPEN MIND has once again achieved tight integration between Autodesk Inventor and the hyperMILL® CAD suite, earning them an official certification for Autodesk Inventor 2015,” says Daniel Graham, Inventor product manager at Autodesk.

Shared database

The Autodesk Inventor software suite helps users design, visualise and simulate parts. The seamless integration of hyperMILL® allows users to directly access the optimal machining strategy for their product using the familiar user interface. This ensures a seamless process from the design stage through to machining.

Thanks to full associativity of the data in hyperMILL® with Autodesk® design data, it is now possible to have CAM operations automatically updated if changes are made to the CAD model. A common database and access to hyperMILL® from the CAD user interface increases speed and efficiency, helps to prevent errors and greatly reduces cycle times as well as the users’ overall workload.
